Genetic Potential

Hey!
Returning player here. I recently just figured out what GP was and wondered how to increase it in my horses? I get that once you breed generations that the GP rises, but no matter how many different high GP stallions I use to cover my mares, the GP never really increases. How could I get it to go up?

Hi there,

To ensure optimal GP gain, you should chose horses with not only a high GP, but also the highest BLUP possible, or at least with a positive value. BLUPs at 0 or below will not result in GP gains, or it will result in minimal GP gains.

You can read more about genetics and BLUP in the Breeder's manual here.

Hope this helps default smiley :)
